Blood RNA test during clot-busting treatment for stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies special molecules in the blood (non-coding RNA) in people having an acute ischemic stroke treated with a procedure to remove clots. It may help doctors better understand how the body responds and potentially improve future stroke care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- Your stroke is confirmed by brain MRI and a new area seen on a CT scan
- You start the clot-removal procedure within 24 hours of symptom onset
- You are well enough to do the trial activities (good performance status)
- You can sign the trial consent form

This study looks at blood and clot samples from people who have had a stroke to understand how inflammatory cells behave. It may help doctors learn more about why strokes happen and improve treatments in the future.
This trial tests a brain-protective approach given through an artery during treatment for an acute ischemic stroke when clot removal (endovascular therapy) is planned. It may help reduce brain injury related to the stroke and procedure.
This trial looks at blood “RNA markers” (molecules that may reflect brain injury) in people who have had a new ischemic stroke. It may help doctors understand what’s happening in the body soon after stroke and possibly guide future care.
This study looks at how a substance called cell-free DNA in the blood changes in people with a large blood clot causing a stroke. It aims to improve understanding of this condition and might help with future treatments.
This study looks at how certain proteins in the blood change after a procedure to remove a large blockage in a brain artery. The goal is to better understand recovery after stroke treatment.
This trial studies blood clots removed from stroke patients to understand them better. If you had a stroke caused by a clot and it was taken out with a special procedure, you may be able to join.
